Just thought I'd share a story I did on the referees of Euro 2016. It's a 
look at the 18 referees going to the football tournament and what their 
records are when it comes to booking players - how much, how often, how 
early etc. 

Analysed around 5,000 football matches over the past 14 years to come up 
with the data. The story's called 'Is Carlos Carballo The Most Ruthless 
Referee At Euro 2016? 
<http://www.ultimateposeur.com/2016/06/is-carlos-carballo-most-ruthless.html>' 
and my noob-ish Python code can be seen here
